Energy Conversion and Power Laboratory
Lab Description
The Energy Conversion and Power Laboratory (ECPL) supports studies in electric machines, power systems, and renewable energy. The lab offers practical training with modern electric machines (both DC and AC), power transformers, renewable energy technologies, and microgrids. Computer-based analysis of collected data is enabled through a comprehensive multimedia course and SCADA Power Lab software. Furthermore, the lab is equipped with complete setups for transmission power lines, Photovoltaic (PV) solar systems, energy storage units, and wind energy conversion systems.

Experimental Stations
AC and DC Machines Station
The experimental work conducted at the test station includes, computational analyses of AC machines, DC machines, single-phase transformers, and induction motors.
Photovoltaic (PV) Solar System Station
The experimental work conducted at the test station includes the power potential of solar systems, efficiency assessments, and examination of voltage-current curves
Distribution Substation
A Distribution Substation in a power system is a facility that plays a crucial role in electricity distribution networks. Its primary function is to transform the high voltage electricity received from transmission lines.
Single Phase and Three Phase Transformer Station
The experimental work conducted at the test station covers 1-phase and 3-phase transformers, phase difference analysis.
Transmission System Station
This station includes 380-kV and 110-kV transmission lines to measure characteristic power transmission parameters on simulated, three-phase, parallel-connected lines fed via a fixed network or a generator
